Answer:

67.5°

16.2 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

According to data, ship is at 15 miles due west to light house A.

Light house B is 6.2 miles due south of Light house A

Now,

                Ship______15 miles_____Light house A

                                                            ║

                                                            ║ 6.2 miles

                                                            ║  

                                                            Light house B

You can see that, if you draw an imaginary straight line from light house B to ship, it is forming a right angle triangle,

so, according to Pythagoras theorem,

(Hypotenuse)^2 = (Base)^2 + (Perpendicular)^2

We need to find hypotenuse,

Base = 6.2, Perpendicular = 15

So, H^2 = (15)^2 + (6.2)^2

H^2 = 225 + 38.44

H = 16.23 miles

now for rounding of to nearest 10th place

H = 16.2 miles

Now for angle of Ship from light house is

Cos^Ф = Base/Hypotenuse

Base = 6.2

Hypotenuse = 16.2

Cos^Ф = 6.2/16.2

Ф = 67.49°

After rounding off to the nearest tenth place

Ф = 67.5°

John is 3 years older than Susan and khalid is 5 years younger than her . The sum of their ages is 40 .
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

John is 17,

Susan is 14,

and Khalid is 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

a = John's age

b = Susan's age

c = Khalid's age

Let's set our rules from the given information.

a = b + 3

c = b - 5

a + b + c = 40

Now, we can solve for b through substitution.

(b + 3) + b + (b - 5) = 40

3b - 2 = 40

3b = 42

b = 14

So, now that we have Susan's age, we can follow the rules and see if it holds.

17 + 14 + 9 = 40 Viola!

David works six more hours per week than Xavier. If Xavier works 32 hours a week, what is the total hours the two work in a
Finger [1]

We are required to find the total hours David and Xavier works in a week

The total hours David and Xavier works in a week is 70 hours

let

number of hours Xavier works = 32 hours

number of hours David works = (6 + 32) hours

= 38 hours

<em>Total number of hours David and Xavier works in a week = number of hours Xavier works + number of hours David works</em>

= 32 hours + 38 hours

= 70 hours

Therefore, the total hours David and Xavier works in a week is 70 hours
